How Infoveave Enabled Supply Chain Analytics and Inventory Forecasting for a Global Electronics Distributor


Improved

Forecast accuracy through centralised data and automated logic

Optimised

Inventory levels reducing overstock and stock-out risks

Real-Time

Supply chain visibility across in-transit and on-hand stock


Business Challenge: Inventory Planning Without Clear Visibility

The distributor manages a highly complex electronics supply chain across multiple product lines, regions, and customers. Effective PSI (Purchase–Sales–Inventory) planning requires tight alignment between sales demand, purchase orders, in-transit inventory, warehouse stock, and pricing and currency variations.

As the business scaled, fragmented SAP and master data across multiple systems and spreadsheets made end-to-end visibility increasingly difficult. The key challenges:

  • Sales, purchase, inventory, and pricing information were scattered across multiple SAP systems and Excel files with no consolidated view
  • Heavy reliance on spreadsheets slowed planning cycles and increased the risk of errors
  • Limited insight into in-transit inventory or upcoming product launches made demand planning unreliable
  • Frequent new product models and pricing updates made forecasts difficult to maintain and adjust quickly
  • Teams struggled to balance inventory — avoiding excess stock while also preventing missed sales opportunities

Manual planning processes could not keep pace with the speed and complexity of the business. A purpose-built supply chain analytics platform with data automation capabilities was needed to replace spreadsheet-driven workflows.

Infoveave's Unified Data Platform for PSI Planning and Forecasting


Infoveave unified data platform for supply chain analytics and inventory forecasting for electronics distributor

Infoveave unified sales, purchase, inventory, and in-transit data into a single supply chain planning platform. Interactive PSI and Forecast screens enabled planning for frequent product launches and pricing changes without reliance on spreadsheets or static dashboards.

Unified Data Platform

SAP sales, purchase, inventory, and in-transit data were consolidated into a single source of truth. This provided end-to-end visibility across the supply chain and eliminated the delays caused by working across disconnected files.

NGauge Forms — Editable Forecasts and Workflow Automation

User-friendly NGauge Forms allowed teams to manage forecasts, pricing updates, and new model launches directly — without IT involvement. Built-in validations ensured accuracy, and changes were reflected across planning views in real time.

Automated PSI Planning

Standardised workflows handled demand forecasting, inventory optimisation, pricing automation, and scenario analysis using predefined business rules. This reduced manual effort and improved consistency across planning cycles.

Real-Time Reporting

Continuous visibility into forecasts, inventory levels, and supply chain performance enabled faster and more confident decisions. Raw data access was also available for audit and record-keeping purposes.

Measurable Business Outcomes

  • Improved forecast accuracy through centralised data and automated reconciliation logic across SAP sources
  • Optimised inventory levels with clear visibility into on-hand and in-transit stock reducing both overstock and stock-out risks
  • Enhanced supply chain visibility enabling proactive planning and faster responses to demand or supply changes
  • Operational efficiency gains through automation of manual forecasting, reconciliation, and reporting tasks
  • Scalable planning platform ready to support new products, customers, and planning scenarios as the business grows

To Summarize

With Infoveave's supply chain analytics platform and NGauge Forms-driven inventory forecasting, the distributor transformed its planning from manual and reactive to automated, flexible, and data-driven.
